Blokes need some adventure in life \u2013 it has always been that way. Living in the same city, you often exhaust your options for adrenalin-building activities. We have compiled some breathtaking locations that could be as exhilarating as they are beautiful; here are our best adventure destinations for men.<\/em><\/p>\n

Les Trois Vall\u00e9es, France<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Les Trois Vall\u00e9es<\/a>, or The Three Valleys, offers 600km of skiable slopes, making it the largest ski area in the world. Big name resorts such as Val Thorens<\/a>, Meribel<\/a> and Courchevel<\/a> reside within the vast region. Each of the three valleys is interlinked, having a total of 183 lifts, the longest run being 12km. One six-day adult pass costs around AU$380 and gives you access to all three valleys! With fantastic dining and world-class nightlife, Les Trois Vall\u00e9es is a must.<\/p>\n

The Big Island, Hawaii<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The largest of the Hawaiian Islands, the Big Island<\/a> is an impressive mix of unique terrains and is home to the famous Hawaiian Iron Man<\/a>. Punters can scuba dive with manta\u00a0rays,\u00a0try their hand at big game fishing, discover 400-foot waterfalls in lush rainforests or surf one of the island\u2019s countless breaks. For a genuinely rare experience, take a bird’s eye view into an active volcano or hike along the volcanic desert. There is a smorgasbord of activities for holidaymakers on the Big Island.
\n<\/p>\n

Montana, USA<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Montana<\/a> can often be overlooked as an American holiday destination but after experiencing it myself I can assure you it couldn\u2019t be more underrated. Snowcapped peaks, endless rivers, picturesque lakes and thousands of kilometres of great outdoors provide ample activities for the urban adventurer. You can kayak or raft gentle streams or take on the wilder river rapids. Hike or cycle the various mountain ranges, or take\u00a0the more\u00a0traditional option and explore on horseback. Better still, grab a Harley-Davidson and explore the state\u2019s fantastic towns, boutique brewery scene and national parks for a glimpse of bison, grizzly bears and the bald eagle.<\/p>\n

Mendoza, Argentina<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Located in the Cuyo region<\/a>, Mendoza is the heart of Argentina\u2019s wine country, famous for producing Malbecs among other reds. When you’re not touring vineyards or enjoying some of the finest beef on the continent you can ski the best slopes Argentina has to offer at Las Le\u00f1as, or take a variety of treks through the Andes.
\n<\/p>\n

Montreal, Canada<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Montreal<\/a> is a fascinating city and the largest in the province of Qu\u00e9bec<\/a>. French colonial neighbourhoods are scattered throughout with the Gothic Revival Notre-Dame Basilica at its centre. The\u00a0\u2018festival city\u2019\u00a0is famous for its abundance of cultural events and strong music scene. The fringe of the city\u00a0has captivating botanical gardens, amazing\u00a0local produce farms and picturesque national parks. The Laurentian mountain range is a small trip from the city and offers anything from ski resorts to river rafting and hiking.<\/p>\n

Queenstown, New Zealand\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The convenience of Queenstown<\/a> is a serious draw card. Situated next to Lake Wakatipu and under the Southern Alps, Queenstown boasts the perfect location for hair-raising escapades. Renowned\u00a0for adventure sports, this city is a bucket list destination for those who enjoy skiing, snowboarding, jet boats or the thrilling heights of the 134m Nevis Bungee Jump<\/a>.<\/p>\n
